Now we move down the time line to the first Century AD.
Saul of Tarsus is on the road to Damascus, he was responding to a report of a Christian group active in Damascus, his intention was to hunt them down and SLAY them..... put them to the Sword.
SAUL was Deep Deep in Unbelief !
On the Road to Damascus that Day God struck Saul Blind, and Jesus said to SAUL...... Saul why do you persecute me....
There is no instance where Saul was contemplating anything but the annihlation of these Jesus following sects.....
